What did you not like about it?
Well the string has a pretty muted feel, which isn't necessarily bad, but it didn't have enough give (pocketing) at the same time, and this combined really made me feel disconnected from the ball.

I also felt like balls had less spin and oomph on them than with Black Shark. It just felt more like playing with a plank than with a stringbed if that makes sense.

I can imagine this string really paying dividends if I just redirected pace with flatter stroke mechanics, but it didn't suit my game at all.

I see...this one is for a client...it will be their first time using a DR98 with full bed spiky shark. Hopefully they will like it :D

Let me know what you think of that blue rock n power!
Well so far a lot like ultra cable but more pop. Love it so far will post back when I get more hours on it. Won't get to play until next Sunday though.

UC is pretty low powered so that's positive news for sure! Thanks for the update.

Only positive impressions - I am now busy with preparing the court for the season - rolling, drilling for water, new clay, etc. :)

Looks like "Field of Dreams."That's a reference to an American baseball movie where a guy builds a baseball field in the middle of his cornfield. Wish we had some red clay around these parts! Thanks for the link to the S10 string review.

The warhammer paint....
What is it like? Is it rubbery or hard? Does it mute the feel?
